More French knitting larks

Always after more ideas about what to do with French knitting - a bag, and a stick for Lucius Malfoy have been two recent discoveries. I like this project from Blue Jeans, May 1981, which is "a super-easy way to brighten up an old, fluffy jumper" - make a length of French knitting using random coloured wool and then stitch loosely into place for a custom jumper. They've also used a length of French knitting braid as a hair band for the model.

Custom gloves

Now taking orders for custom-made knitted gloves and wrist-warmers - all sizes, your choice of colours. Go on, wrap your hands in merino wool, cashmere and silk this winter. Lovely gloves in my Etsy shop!
